Fun on Impossible

[azedenkae]

After defeating Impossible twice, I tried Impossible another three times, but trying to vary up the game a bit...

I find that it was impossible. Any different build I tried failed miserably, which I find a bit... D:ly. My problem is that I had to focus on researching the construction side of the tree, preventing me from playing around with ship things. :3 Different Aux systems, different weapons, different trainings, different ships and shiz.

Anybody has any suggestions as to how I can much more easily maintain the economy. I basically spam Mines and Habs atm. >. < And as I focus on House Thulun, I don't really worry about not being able to build shiz in time. But... yar.

Then again, it is 'Impossible', so I understand if it's meant to have the player be extremely tight on their plans. xD

Haven't tried that. Yet but without research for ships don't you take heavy losses whenever the xenos invade?

RESPECT. I have never won the game, even on easy.

Sorry for the late reply. XD

lixxx235: It's not too hard, you just gotta be stringent with yourself. Must take care of EVERY system EVERY turn, making sure you're doing all you need each turn. Because just a delay of one turn can mean that Hab finishes too late, and your population is too high and morale takes a hit and bam, everything sucks. XD

neveryours: Well, I guess it's not NO research at all, but really I do focus more on the other side. Early on I get to Wolf Cruisers and build a few of them.

Then cruisers with various close range weapons for defense later on a bit more.

So some ship research, but not like a massive focus.

Heh. I'll test myself on that difficulty someday. Still trying to conplete all maps on hard.
